No it won't. Heating loss increases as a product of the differential. So
leaving the heating on may well, of course, result in a more comfortable
house, but it won't save money.

I've been doing it for several months and my gas consumption has
decreased by approx 3% in my house and about 5% in my partner's house.

Then this is purely down to reducing the maximum temperature - not leaving
it on 24 hours.

Did you think I was guessing?

Since you do about near everything else, why not this?

FWIW, this isn't a matter of my opinion. Do some research if my word isn't
good enough. Which I'll expect you'll agree with.
